God Will Crown Your Efforts With Success

In everything you do, put God first, and He will direct you and crown your efforts with success...

[Proverbs 3:6, TLB]

Your Loving Father desires to be involved in every aspect of your life. Nothing is too small or insignificant to bring to Him in prayer. Most people pray before a task "Lord, crown my efforts with success," but it is also necessary to "put Him first" by asking Him to "direct" you. By doing this, you put the task in His hands, and depend on His wisdom and power to complete it with success.

It is your Loving Father who can give you creative ideas. Each time you approach a task, remember that there is your way of doing it, and there is God's way. If you humbly and prayerfully give it to Him, He becomes responsible for seeing that it succeeds.

Do you sometimes face situations where you put in so much effort yet you do not get the desired output? Do you need to do something different? Then get your Loving Father intimately involved with what you do each and every time. God's plan is to prosper you and make you successful in every thing you do according to His will. You can lay hold of that plan as you commit what you do to Him, and trust Him to direct your efforts. Your efforts will be crowned with success.

Prayer: My Loving Father, thank You that the plans You have for me are to prosper me. In Your loving way, You desire to be part of all I do simply for my good. Forgive me for the times I have gone about my duties leaving You out of the process entirely. Teach me how to approach what I do in faith and confidence, instead of in fear and doubt. Thank You that as I put You first in everything I do, my efforts will be blessed, to Your glory. Amen. 

My Presence Makes The Difference

But the Lord was with Joseph, and he (though a slave) was a successful and prosperous man...

[Genesis 39:2, AMP].

Joseph [Genesis 37 and 39] did not have to be rich to be successful and prosperous. Though at that time he was a slave, he was successful and prosperous because the Lord was with him.

Your Loving Father's plans are to prosper you. He wants you to be successful and prosperous in every area of your life. His Presence makes the difference. With God, you can have peace in turbulent times. With God, you can have joy. With God, you can have hope, for with Him nothing is impossible. With God, a little project you start will begin to flourish. With God, things you have dreamed about will become a reality.

It is an honour to have God as a your Father. His Spirit living in you makes the difference. Make a conscious effort to regard and take advantage of the Presence of the Lord with you.

Prayer: My Loving Father, thank You for Your presence that always goes with me. With or without any possessions, I am complete and secure in You. May I always regard Your presence with me. May my life continue to manifest the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Open my eyes to see the difference in my life because of You. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

I Will Counsel You And Watch Over You

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;

I will counsel you and watch over you.

[Psalms 32:8, NIV]

 

It is indeed wonderful to have Almighty God as your Father. Today He says to you, "I will give you the best counsel, opinion and advice and watch over you". You can trust Your Loving Father to give you the best advice and direction, for He sees beyond what you or anyone else can see.  In His plans to prosper you, He needs you to follow the right way. He desires to give you the blessing without sorrow added to it. He wants you to look back at today, some time in the future, and smile that you had made the right decisions today.

Are you at a point in your life where you need to make a decision? Are you getting confused with different opinions from people? Do you need advise that comes with peace?

Your Loving Father assures you that He will instruct you and teach you the way you should go. Call on Him today for advice and direction. He will also watch to know if you will take His counsel.

Prayer: My Loving Father, thank You that the plans You have for me are of good and not evil. Plans to prosper me and give me the future I hope for. There are times when I need to make decisions but I do not get an answer of peace. There are times when I need advice yet I search everywhere for counsel. Thank You for the assurance of direction and the best counsel. I pray that by Your Spirit, I will always remember to come to You for counsel. Teach me to how I can hear from You. Teach me listen to You. May You word continue to transform me that I may willingly obey You. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

(You can mention any area of your life where you need advise and godly counsel. Ask God for guidance and direction).
